The Gothic Fantasy series is a large anthology project from Flame Tree Publishing, collecting classic and contemporary stories across horror, science fiction, mythology, and fantasy. Jonathan Swift’s work appears in several volumes alongside that of many other authors. The series spans over 90 volumes covering subjects from Norse myths to alien invasions.

Flame Tree Publishing has been releasing these volumes since 2015, with the pace increasing in recent years. The books are hardcover collections that pair public-domain classic stories with new fiction from contemporary writers. Subjects range widely, from Chilling Horror Short Stories and Science Fiction Short Stories to mythology collections like Greek Myths & Tales and Norse Myths & Tales.

Swift’s inclusion in the series reflects the breadth of the publisher’s approach. His satirical writing fits into volumes on dystopia, crime, and humor, while his Irish roots connect to the Celtic and Irish folklore collections. The Gothic Fantasy series is best treated as a reference library rather than something to read cover to cover, with each volume standing as an independent anthology on its particular subject.
